Notes

Players:
Charles Atkins - keyboards and vocals
The Blues Boys
Larry Laseur - harmonica
Harty Wiedemann - guitar
Tom Henning - guitar


Highlights:
Why Should I Stop - late start on track 1, track 2 is "messed up" and Charles sweetly asks if he can start over. Track 3 is complete, with Larry giving a tasteful touch on harp.
Happy Birthday to the Baby - one in a series of kids songs Charles wanted to do; it gets a bit wild near the end. I guess it's Tom on guitar as Harty doesn't come in till track 7. Charles almost sounds guilty when Harty walks in because we are deep into it with a wide swath of songs from blues to Christian to kids to country.
The Key to Your Heart - sweet song; pure Charles - it's all in the voice with soft piano and a touch of Larry. Track 6 is golden, with Charles only.
Here We are in Heaven and Loves Refrain - well done but I dunno. Funny how Charles can stick those in between the band songs while the boys break. Usually on the repeated band songs, the last one is best. You also might skip track 22 where Tom gets his lesson on Drown In My Own Tears but Charles gets a good laugh with Tom at the end of track 23 before nailing it on 24.
The last track - Send Her Home to Me - another of those end of tape tunes coaxed out of Charles, made up on the spot.
